Getting Started

The UPSOM Dean's Summer Research Program is the major source of student stipend support for summer scholarly activity.  Funded primarily by the Dean, the SRP is directed by Dr. Allen Humphrey and coordinated through the Scholarly Project Directors and the Office of Student Affairs.

Program requirements include:

1.       Abstract submission and correspondence completed through the student portfolio on the Zone

 

2.       Attendance at an initial day-long introductory research workshop (early June)

3.       Attendance at the mid-summer workshop and feedback session (early July)

4.       A poster presentation at the Student Summer Research Symposium in October

To participate in this program, students must first identify a preceptor and a research project and then develop a project proposal.  The links below can help you find a preceptor who matches your interests and instructs you on how to write and submit a project proposal. All applications received by the deadline of February 29, 2008 will be reviewed by a central committee of faculty.  Funding offers based on the merit of the proposal will be made by the end of March. A stipend of $3000 is provided for the eight-week program.
